Profit
Is an Airbnb in Mollepata Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Mollepata Airbnb took in PEN 27,953 in the 12 months to April 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about PEN 1,700 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about PEN 4,120 a month.
These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Mollepata's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Mollepata listings are booked on 32% or more of their nights, against 12% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of PEN 320 adds about PEN 3,200 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge PEN 460 a night or more, against a median of PEN 320. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about PEN 2,800 a year.
- Open for the busy months. June brought the average listing about PEN 11,600, against PEN 820 in October, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about PEN 5,570 a month, against PEN 2,330 for the average one.
